DELVING
INTO
MUSCLE
SHOALS
The
Committee
of
Congress
that
has
been
investi­
gating
the
different
offers
for
the
piirehase
of
hluscle
Shoals
has
brought
out
many
interesting
facts
that
have
not
been
understood
by
the
public.
Of
course
the
committee
was
disappointed
by
the
failure
of
Henrj'
Ford
to
accept
its
invitation,
and
elucidate
liis
offer
for
the
great
“
Niagara
of
the
South”,
But
the
Alabama
Power
Company,
which
is
likewise
a
bidder
for
the
property,
is
not
so
modest,
and
Thomas
W.
Martin,
president
of
the
company,
told
the
commit­
tee
that
his
company
holds
an
option
for
the
exclusive
right
to
purchase
the
Warrior
Steam
plant,
contained
in
the
contract
signed
with
the
War
Department,
by
which
power
was
supplied
by
the
plant
during
the
war
for
operation
of
nitrate
plants
at
Muscle
Shoals.
Mr
Ford
includes
this
property
in
his
offer
to
the
War
Department
despite
the
claim
to
it
of
the
Ala­
bama
company.
The
feature
of
the
hearings
brings
out
the
facts
that
the
Alabama
interests
that
are
seeking
to
pur­
chase
Muscle
Shoals
have
already
won
their
spurs
in
the
South
by
creating
and
carrying
on
large
develop­
ments,
and
that
it
would
seem
that
they
should
he
given
particular
consideration
on
account
of
their
accomplished
achievements.
On
the
other
hand
Mr
Ford
is
being
j)ietnrGd
as
a
later
day
“
carpet
bag­
ger”
so
far
aSftlps
particular
proposition
is
coueerned.
But
Ford
is
Ford,
and
there
are
none
like
him—
hence
the
Ford
enthusiasm
in
connection
with
Muscle
Shoals.
It
may,
nevertheless,
be
regarded
as
unfort­
unate
for
the
public
interests,
that
the
investigation,
before
Congress
does
not
disclose
the
particular
mer­
its
claimed
for
the
Ford
offei*.
It
is
said
that
Mr
Ford
will
make
alterations
in
liis
proposition.
It
is
clear
that
the
Government
will
not
do
business
wdth
him
unless
these
changes
are
far
more
favorable
tlian
anything
contained
in
the
earlier
proioosals.
ONE
JUSTICE
FOR
ALL
MEN
Jnstiee
is
tiying
to
speak
with
a
compolliug
voice
in
North
Carolina,
where
Wright
Eouse,
an
aged^
ei’ippled
negro
,locally
known
as
a
“
conjure
doctor,”
has
been
sentenced
to
die
because
he
killed
a
man
at
the
instigation
of
the
victim’s
wife
and
her
alleged
lover.
The
two
white
plotters
were
given
a
peniten­
tiary
sentence,
but
the
negro,
who
did
the
killing
,is
to
suffer
the
penalty
of
death
unless
there
shall
be
a
com­
mutation.
Letters
from
white
people
all
over
the
State
are
said
to
be
pouring
in
upon
the
Governor
urging
commutation.
The
Govexmor,
who
at
first
stood
firm
for
death
penalty,
is
reported
in
a
less
firm
frame
of
mind.
He
contended
that
the
injustice
in
the
ease
consisted
of
sending
the
two
white
instigators
to
pinson
instead
of
to
the
chaii'^
and
beeaxxse
they
were
not
given
what
they
deserved
is
no
reason
for
showing
leniency
to
the
man
who
was
given
what
he
deserved.
Granted
the
Governor’s
abstract
logic
is
good,
still
there
remains
the
fact
that
the
negro
is
to
suffer
a
heavier
penalty
than
his
wJiite
accomplices,
who,
if
the
stoiy
as
published
is
true,
are
even
more
guilty
than
he.
They
plotted;
he
acted.
Therefore,
the
“
awakening”
of
North
Carolina
in
reference
to
tliis
case
is
fine-spirited.
The
South—or
a
part
of
it—^lias
gotten
the
reixutation
of
dealing
out
two
brands
of
justice
to
negiu
and
white.
North
Car­
olina
demands
that
two
brands
of
jnstiee
shall
not
be
dealt
out.
Since
it
is
now
impossible
to
execute
the
two
A\'hite
plotters,
the
State
demands
that
the
black
killer
shall
not
die.
He
may
deserve
to
die,
but
he
shall
not
die
if
white
malefactors
guilty
of
the
same
crime
are
allowed
to
live.
That
is
the
attitude.
It
may
not
be
an
entirely
logical
attitude,
but,
in
^■iew
of
the
reputation
some
of
the
Soutlieim
States
have
gotten
for
mistreatment
of
the
negrOj
it
is
a
might;^'
sensible
and
hopeful
one.
It
is
an
attitixde
that
other
States
can
follow
with
pi’ofit.
THE
TOWER
OF
STRENGTH.
The
company
of
loyal
citizens,
who
met
with
the
memhei’s
of
the
Public
Safety
Commission
Wednesday
evening
and
j)ledged
their
support
to
the
Commission
in
its
efforts
to
make
Hudson
a
better
place,
especially
for
the
youth,
after
being
informed
of
present
condi­
tions
in
the
city,
did
yoeman
seiwice
in
the
cause
of
righteousness
and
law
enfoi’cement.
These
I’ight-living
and
right-thinking
men
Ixave
set
an
example
wliieh
all
citizens
may
well
emulate.
They
met
on
the
common
ground
of
morality
and
with
the
best
interests
of
Hudson
at
heart
they
acted
■with
great
breadth
of
vision
and
xxiind.
The
laxrs
oTthe
land
must
he
enforced
if
we
ai’c
to
continue
a
happy,
peaceful
and
pirosperous
nation.
We
cannot
jpiek
and
choose
the
laws
which
we
will
obey
and
trample
over
those
wliieh
we
do
not
like.
Were
it
not
so
then
the
burglar
and
the
highway­
man
may
well
say,
“
I
do
not
believe
in
laws
against
robbery
and
consequently
I
wdll
not
obey
them.”
Never
in
the
nation's
history
haS
there
been
so
much
disregard
for
law
as
we
find
now.
I
t
has
increased
to
an
alarming
extent
and
has
grown
to
be
a
seidous
na­
tional
problem.
The
impending
danger
'would
be
greatly
lessened
and
eventually
jiassedi
if
in
every
eommnnity,
as
in
Hudson^
men
of
firm
conviction
and
hi^h
purposes
would
ujxhold
those
ehax’ged
with
the
enforcement
of
law
and
oixlei’.
Our
fellow
eitizens
who
have
taken
this
stand
have
performed
a
great
public
service,
and
stand
as
a
beacon
light
of
hope
for
the
future.

MORRIS-CHAIR
ADVENTURER
ROASTS
WASHINGTON
Discrediting
American
heroes
seems
to
be
the
chief
joy
not
only
of
foreign
hixt
many
American
writers.
One
of
the
latest
iUnstratious
of
this
is
seen
in
the
statement
of
H.
G.
Wells
that
George
Washington
was
indolent.
NoWj
let’s
look
at
the
record
a
little.
Washington,
altho
of
a
family
that
could
have
maintained
him
in
idleness,
trained
himself
as
a
surveyor,
an
occupa­
tion
that
reqnii'’ed
outdoor
life
and
no
small
degree
of
exertion,
since
it
called
for
travel
on
foot
thru
a
wilderness.
He
snrve3\ed
nearly
all
the
estates
in
his
neighborhood
and
some
large
grants
of
laud
far
up
the
Potomae—^in
a
region
uninhabited
by
whites.
Washington
trained
himself
for
military
service—not
exactly
the
task
of
an
indolent
man.
He
led
expedi­
tions
against
the
Indians
and,
because
of
his
personal
activity,
was
the
means
of
saving
part
of
the
troops
which
Bracldoek
had
so
nnskillfnlly
led
in
the
expe­
dition
against
the
French
and
Indians
on
the
Monon-
gahola.
He
spent
three
yeai'S
defending
the
frontier
against
the
French
and
Indians.
In
his
later
years
Washington
took
personal
chai-ge
of
the
management
of
his
]xlantations,
not
particularly
a
lazy
m
a
n
’s
job.
Thus
Ave
see
that
Washington
Avas
not
physically
indolent.
When
Ave
consider
his
mental
activities,
Ave
reach
a
similar
conclusion.
He
became
a
member
of
the
House
of
Burgesses
of
Virginia
and
planned
and
AATOte
the
non-importation
resolution
and
other
meas­
ures
that
shaped
the
policy
of
resistance
to
British
oppression.
He
AA'as
a
member
of
the
first
Continen­
tal
Congress,
Avas
a
leader
in
the
movement
for
Amei’iean
independence,
by
his
personal
influence
kept
his
armies
together
AA'lien
Ins
men
AA^ere
AAdthout
pay
or
sufficient
food
or
clothes,
suppressed
a
secret
ef­
fort
to
overthroAv
the
Continental
goveiliment^
Avas
chosen
a
delegate
to
the
Constitutional
Convention
and
Avas
unanimously
chosen
its
president.
H
is
per­
sonal
activity
often
brought
harmony
in
the
conven­
tion
and
his
Amice
and
pen
Avere
a
lai’ge
influence
in
securing
the
ratification
of
the
Constitution.
He
serv­
ed
as
Pi’esident
of
the
United
States
duidug
the
most
difficult
period
of
its
history
when
he
Avas
confronted
bj\
tlie
task
of
creating
harmony
at
home
and
preserA^-
ing
peace
in
onr
foreign
relations.
These
are
only
a
fcAV
Avell
knoAvn
facts
in
his
career
as
a
leader
of
public
thought
and
action—a
leadership
that
could
not
possibly
liaAm
been
conducted
by
a
man
mentally
indolent.
It
might
be
sufficient
reply
to
Wells
to
re.mark
that
if
Washington
was
a
lazy
man,
England
Avon'd
have
been
fortunate
to
have
in
her
military
and
ciA'il
affairs
men
Avho
avctc
afflicted
Avith
the
same
sort
of
indolence.
RADIO

A

there

50,000
Avireless

in

to-day
there

600,-

Tlie
only
I’eason
AA^hy
there
aren’t

is
because
tlie

has
become
inadequate
to
the
de­
mand.
EAmry
n
ight
these

are
used
by

a
i

”
in
N
cav

Washington,
Chicago,
Detroit,
San
Francisco,
and
other
cities.
The
delight
of
one
“
b
u
g
”
when
he
finds
a
syin])athetic
radio
soul
is
equal
to
the
fi’aternity
of
Elks
gatheroi.l
at
Volstead
club-sideboards.
Secretary
of
Commerce
Hoover
has
taken
the
initiathm
in
bringing
the
rex^resentatNes
of
commercial
radio
and
othei’S
into
a
conference
for
the
purpose
of
developing
Xxlans
for
control
of
the
ether,
AA'hich
lie
says^
is
threatened
Avith
being
filled
“
Avitli
frantic
chaos.”
It
is
of
course
veiy
clear
that
if
the
owners
of
tlie
600,000
instnxments
that
liaAm
been
put
into
opera­
tion,
Avere
all
to
do
“
broadcasting”
at
once
that
the
sound
AAmuld
have
the
noises
of
Babel
faded.
“
I
t
is
therefore
primaril.A\
a
question
of
broadcasting,
’
’
says
Mr
Hoovei*^
aa
F
o
adds
that
“
it
becomes
of
ixrimary
in­
terest
to
say
Avho
is
to
do
the
broadcasting
and
under
Avhat
eirenmstanees,
and
AAdth
AAdiat
type
of
matei-ial.
It
is
inconceivable
that
Ave
should

so
great
a
Xiossihility
for

for

Two
reasons
are
given
for

e
large
financial
gain
m
ade
possible

r
u

e
pool.
One
is
the
increase
in

e
m
a

­
k

t
price
of

The
second
reason,
and
the
one
on
AVhieh
th

stress
is
laid
by
officials

is
th
a

u

Of course the committee was disappointed by the failure of Henrj' Ford to accept its invitation, and elucidate liis offer for the great “ Niagara of the South”, But the Alabama Power Company, which is likewise a bidder for the property, is not so modest, and Thomas W. Martin, president of the company, told the commit­ tee that his company holds an option for the exclusive right to purchase the Warrior Steam plant, contained in the contract signed with the War Department, by which power was supplied by the plant during the war for operation of nitrate plants at Muscle Shoals. Mr Ford includes this property in his offer to the War Department despite the claim to it of the Ala­ bama company. The feature of the hearings brings out the facts that the Alabama interests that are seeking to pur­ chase Muscle Shoals have already won their spurs in the South by creating and carrying on large develop­ ments, and that it would seem that they should he given particular consideration on account of their accomplished achievements. On the other hand Mr Ford is being j)ietnrGd as a later day “ carpet bag­ ger” so far aSftlps particular proposition is coueerned. But Ford is Ford, and there are none like him— hence the Ford enthusiasm in connection with Muscle Shoals. It may, nevertheless, be regarded as unfort­ unate for the public interests, that the investigation, before Congress does not disclose the particular mer­ its claimed for the Ford offei*. It is said that Mr Ford will make alterations in liis proposition. It is clear that the Government will not do business wdth him unless these changes are far more favorable tlian anything contained in the earlier proioosals. ONE JUSTICE FOR ALL MEN Jnstiee is tiying to speak with a compolliug voice in North Carolina, where Wright Eouse, an aged^ ei’ippled negro ,locally known as a “ conjure doctor,” has been sentenced to die because he killed a man at the instigation of the victim’s wife and her alleged lover. The two white plotters were given a peniten­ tiary sentence, but the negro, who did the killing ,is to suffer the penalty of death unless there shall be a com­ mutation. Letters from white people all over the State are said to be pouring in upon the Governor urging commutation. The Govexmor, who at first stood firm for death penalty, is reported in a less firm frame of mind. He contended that the injustice in the ease consisted of sending the two white instigators to pinson instead of to the chaii'^ and beeaxxse they were not given what they deserved is no reason for showing leniency to the man who was given what he deserved. Granted the Governor’s abstract logic is good, still there remains the fact that the negro is to suffer a heavier penalty than his wJiite accomplices, who, if the stoiy as published is true, are even more guilty than he. They plotted; he acted. Therefore, the “ awakening” of North Carolina in reference to tliis case is fine-spirited. The South—or a part of it—^lias gotten the reixutation of dealing out two brands of justice to negiu and white. North Car­ olina demands that two brands of jnstiee shall not be dealt out. Since it is now impossible to execute the two A\'hite plotters, the State demands that the black killer shall not die. He may deserve to die, but he shall not die if white malefactors guilty of the same crime are allowed to live. That is the attitude.

The company of loyal citizens, who met with the memhei’s of the Public Safety Commission Wednesday evening and j)ledged their support to the Commission in its efforts to make Hudson a better place, especially for the youth, after being informed of present condi­ tions in the city, did yoeman seiwice in the cause of righteousness and law enfoi’cement. These I’ight-living and right-thinking men Ixave set an example wliieh all citizens may well emulate. They met on the common ground of morality and with the best interests of Hudson at heart they acted ■with great breadth of vision and xxiind. The laxrs oTthe land must he enforced if we ai’c to continue a happy, peaceful and pirosperous nation. We cannot jpiek and choose the laws which we will obey and trample over those wliieh we do not like. Were it not so then the burglar and the highway­ man may well say, “ I do not believe in laws against robbery and consequently I wdll not obey them.” Never in the nation's history haS there been so much disregard for law as we find now. I t has increased to an alarming extent and has grown to be a seidous na­ tional problem. The impending danger 'would be greatly lessened and eventually jiassedi if in every eommnnity, as in Hudson^ men of firm conviction and hi^h purposes would ujxhold those ehax’ged with the enforcement of law and oixlei’. Our fellow eitizens who have taken this stand have performed a great public service, and stand as a beacon light of hope for the future. moomKiYW iJEWBBuimY WOOL p^iN mrt New York Growers Clean a Fortune in Two Clips— Mil­ lion Pounds Sold. MORRIS-CHAIR ADVENTURER ROASTS WASHINGTON Discrediting American heroes seems to be the chief joy not only of foreign hixt many American writers. One of the latest iUnstratious of this is seen in the statement of H. G. Wells that George Washington was indolent. NoWj let’s look at the record a little. Washington, altho of a family that could have maintained him in idleness, trained himself as a surveyor, an occupa­ tion that reqnii'’ed outdoor life and no small degree of exertion, since it called for travel on foot thru a wilderness. He snrve3\ed nearly all the estates in his neighborhood and some large grants of laud far up the Potomae—^in a region uninhabited by whites. Washington trained himself for military service—not exactly the task of an indolent man. He led expedi­ tions against the Indians and, because of his personal activity, was the means of saving part of the troops which Bracldoek had so nnskillfnlly led in the expe­ dition against the French and Indians on the Monon- gahola. He spent three yeai'S defending the frontier against the French and Indians. In his later years Washington took personal chai-ge of the management of his ]xlantations, not particularly a lazy m a n ’s job. Thus Ave see that Washington Avas not physically indolent. When Ave consider his mental activities, Ave reach a similar conclusion. He became a member of the House of Burgesses of Virginia and planned and AATOte the non-importation resolution and other meas­ ures that shaped the policy of resistance to British oppression. He AA'as a member of the first Continen­ tal Congress, Avas a leader in the movement for Amei’iean independence, by his personal influence kept his armies together AA'lien Ins men AA^ere AAdthout pay or sufficient food or clothes, suppressed a secret ef­ fort to overthroAv the Continental goveiliment^ Avas chosen a delegate to the Constitutional Convention and Avas unanimously chosen its president. H is per­ sonal activity often brought harmony in the conven­ tion and his Amice and pen Avere a lai’ge influence in securing the ratification of the Constitution. He serv­ ed as Pi’esident of the United States duidug the most difficult period of its history when he Avas confronted bj\ tlie task of creating harmony at home and preserA^- ing peace in onr foreign relations. These are only a fcAV Avell knoAvn facts in his career as a leader of public thought and action—a leadership that could not possibly liaAm been conducted by a man mentally indolent. It might be sufficient reply to Wells to re.mark that if Washington was a lazy man, England Avon'd have been fortunate to have in her military and ciA'il affairs men Avho avctc afflicted Avith the same sort of indolence. RADIO ENTHUSIASM EVERYWHERE A year ago there were 50,000 Avireless telephone reeciA'ing sets in the country; to-day there are 600,- 000 sets. Tlie only I’eason AA^hy there aren’t moxm is because tlie supply has become inadequate to the de­ mand. EAmry n ight these sets are used by their OAvn- ers and their guests to participate in lectures and concerts that ai-e “ thrOAVii into the a i r ” in N cav York, Washington, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco, and other cities. The delight of one “ b u g ” when he finds a syin])athetic radio soul is equal to the fi’aternity of Elks gatheroi.l at Volstead club-sideboards. Secretary of Commerce Hoover has taken the initiathm in bringing the rex^resentatNes of commercial radio and othei’S into a conference for the purpose of developing Xxlans for control of the ether, AA'hich lie says^ is threatened Avith being filled “ Avitli frantic chaos.” It is of course veiy clear that if the owners of tlie 600,000 instnxments that liaAm been put into opera­ tion, Avere all to do “ broadcasting” at once that the sound AAmuld have the noises of Babel faded. “ I t is therefore primaril.A\ a question of broadcasting, ’ ’ says Mr Hoovei*^ aa F o adds that “ it becomes of ixrimary in­ terest to say Avho is to do the broadcasting and under Avhat eirenmstanees, and AAdth AAdiat type of matei-ial. It is inconceivable that Ave should alloAv so great a Xiossihility for service, for ugaas ' , for entertaiiiment, for education^ and ,f pr Antal commercial purposes, to be droAvned in advertising chatter, or for commercial jnirposes that can be quite AAmll served by our other means of comrannication.” While radio has sxxrung into popular favor in a feAV Aveeks, its Avonders have been utilized by commer­ cial interests for many years.

M r R o b e rtson said. Two reasons are given for tn e large financial gain m ade possible t h r u th e pool. One is the increase in th e m a r ­ k e t price of wool. The prices receiv­ ed for the pooled wool is su b s tantial­ ly the present m a rk e t rate, w h e reas had th e farm e rs sold a t th e tim e of the clip th e am o u n t now disposed of would have brought only about $180,- 000, the price offered bj-^ local bn; a t the tim e being about 18 pound. The second reason, and the one on AVhieh th e greatest stress is laid by officials of th e association, is th a t th r u the pool it has been possible to offer large quantities of certain grades to the m ills direct. All of th e pooled wool has been sold direct to mills, and M r R o b e rtson has m a n y letters indi­ cating th a t the m ills are as anxious to buy from th e association as th e association is to sell to them . ITe thinks th a t once th e m ills u n ­ derstand th a t the pooled wool is reli- 'able as to grade, th e whole clip can be sold direct from th e office of the association w ithout recourse to sales­ m en. W h e re large quantities of one grade are offered m a n u factu rers are Willing to send a man to inspect the wool in the association’s warehouse. According to Mr Robertson, this is the first tim e the m ills have been able to purchase, in large quantities. The farm e rs who consigned their wool to the pool are enrolled in 34 county Avool growers ’associations, each w ith its own officers and bylaws. These are federated into th e State as­ sociation, and th e wool of each m e m ­ b e r is shipped by th cotm ty organiz­ ation to the w a rehouse of th e State association in Syracuse. Herer it is carefully graded by an ex­ pert, and the to tal overhead cost to the individual is approxim a tely four cents a pound.
